BBQ Chili



Sometimes I see a recipe and it doesn't do much for me. Then I can see it again, and I cant wait to make it. CRAZY! Case in point, I've been seeing chili recipes all over the blogosphere. I guess I'm just not in the chili mood because it didn't strike a cord with me. Then I saw a recipe for BBQ chili and I just couldn't get to the store quick enough.



The original recipe called for a soy crumble. I substituted ground turkey. And I recommend using baked tortilla chips as a spoon. Yea!


I'm submitting this to Lori at The Recipe Girl. She is hosting the The Ultimate Super Bowl Party Recipe Smack Down. Bloggers can submit Super Bowl recipe favorites, and the winner (selected randomly) will receive a $250 gift card to Sam's Club.

Another healthy recipe to keep us on track this new year. GO US! I'm down 7 pounds. How about you?

    Congrats on the 7 pounds! Your 7 ahead of me. I want to drop at least 15 (would like 20) before our cruise in August! I am still the same. I really need permission to get back to the gym (have a shoulder issue). Hopefully I am giving the go ahead tomorrow!

  8. You're so sweet to offer to send me a box! I'd hate to trouble you. You think maybe Target has it? We've only got one grocery store here (grumble) so my only other choices are Target and Wal-Mart.
